Scored 85 points, quite a good-looking film.
Different from popular commercial films, the director of this work, Jaume Collet-Serra, has added a lot of suspense to the story, and it is completely difficult to distinguish between enemies and friends until the last moment.
The story of Liam Neeson:
In 2006, during the Shanghai Film Festival, Liam and his wife Natasha Richardson met Luc Besson, who made his acting career a second spring. The latter is working on an action crime thriller about a retired CIA agent who travels across Europe to save his kidnapped daughter.
The 2009 release of "Hurricane Rescue" was an unexpected box-office hit, officially opening Liam Neeson's "rescue" universe one after another.
However, less than two months after the release of "Hurricane Rescue", Liam's wife Natasha died of a serious head injury while skiing. Liam Neeson started drinking.
In the later stage, no matter what the English name of the film he acts in, as long as it is related to the plot, the Chinese translation of the title likes to rely on "rescue".
Includes: "Hurricane Rescue" Trilogy, "Non-Stop", "Commuter"
Second, the story: make up tension and excitement
A middle-aged ordinary person, Michael, takes the train to the city to work every day.
Suddenly one day he was unemployed and had no money. A strange woman, Joanna, approached him and offered him a lot of money, hoping that he would find a person Prynne who did not belong to the train an hour before the train arrived at the station.
For the money, he agreed.
He started asking strangers one by one (1. Never been on a commuter train; 2. Destination is Cold Spring Station)
Things don't go well and accidents happen frequently. Joanna killed 2 people on the grounds that Michael failed to follow the rules of the game. Of course, Michael also killed the insider she dispatched on the train.
After careful investigation and thought, Michael found "Prynne" (real name: Sofia). Those people just wanted to seize the evidence in her bag.
And Michael's enemies are not only Joanna, but also dignitaries.
In the end, even the train had an accident.
3. Visual effects: the overall work is very good
The final train disaster scene is a full CGI shot.
"We only had one set, and we only made one car, and that one car became the seven cars in the film. The production team was so good, you really couldn't tell, you would believe it was a train."
Fourth, tidbits:
1. This film is the fourth collaboration between director Zomi Sheila and Liam Neeson after "Unidentified", "Air Rescue" and "Vengeance in the Night". 2. This film is the second collaboration between directors Zomi Sheila and Vera Farmiga after "Orphans". 3. During the filming of "Commuter Rescue", Liam "Uncle" was still conscientious in his performance. Not only did he get up at 4 o'clock in the morning for physical training, but he also rehearsed with stunt performers in the evening.
4. Liam Neeson has a soft spot for confined spaces. "These movies that take place in vehicles, where I can fight enemies in confined spaces, are heaven for me."
